Pat on the Back

This week, we talk about airport assholes, how good it feels to throw someone out of a ball game, and the right way to handle pretzel bites at the mall.

The King of Providence has arrived. This weeks episode brings Providence the leadership it finally deserves. I also break down some relationship/sex-life stories that were generously (unexpectedly) donated to the show. Along with live reactions, riffs and whatever else came to mind during the game.

This week on Pat on the Back: I mildly lose it over the Yankees, explain why about 80% of the drinks consume are room temperature, recap the betting challenge set for myself, and make the case that Snake Plisskin might not be as bad ass as everyone says. Just another night watching games and talking through whatever comes to mind.

Episode 45 is a new experiment for Pat on the Back; just me, a game, and whatever thoughts come up in real time. Reactions, bets, chaos and random stories all collide as try a looser, more "hangout" style of recording. No structure, no pressure, just talking through the game like youre on the couch me. Pitching for balls and figuring it out as we go.

This week I talk about how finally figured out what makes watching baseball at actually bearable, a very no knowledge Final Four preview, my gripes with Silent Hill 2 (despite actually really liking the game), and its looking like the 61 cent challenge is not going very well so far. Also, I'm a little sick so this episode is done entirely with cough drops changing the way talk.

This week I get into some of the things other drivers do that make absolutely no sense, including people who treat a green light like its optional. From there I talk about getting back into sports betting season and how quickly things can spiral once youre locked in. Just another episode of me trying to make sense of things that probably don't make sense.

This week I open the show trying to out how black holes actually work and quickly realize might just be lying. Then we get into St. Paddy's Day, a night out that didn't go how expected, and why definitely wouldn't survive in a war right now. I also talk about One Piece without even knowing if like it, and a guy at work who might be addicted to scrap metal. Just another episode of me having and seeing where they go.

Some days at work there is so little to do you start inventing tasks just to keep busy. That leads into questions about watching RomComs with my , the annual chaos of NFL free agency, and the strange moment when the excitement dies and teams start signing guys nobody has ever heard of. Plus I introduce you to my moms cousin Dwayne and explain why I'm not buying the sudden gym rush that happens the first warm day of the year. NOTE: this was recorded before the Maxx Crosby trade fell through

Lawyers know everything. Henchman need retirement plans. The gym locker room has officially lost all structure. This week I talk about why lawyers might be carrying the heaviest secrets on earth, the exact age you have to retire from getting punched by Batman, and a gym moment that forced me to internally HR myself. Also, a shocking twist: I didn't even have to ask for number.

A blizzard rolled through town. The gym needs a code of conduct. And had to sit behind a man who ordered a dozen donuts in the drive- thru which should be illegal. Were talking donut policy, corn tortilla fraud, and the moment my cat almost caught on fire. Welcome to Pat on the Back.

This week I attempt to understand an entire country functions on bicycles. Also: -The co-existence of Valentines day and the Olympics-Being confidently wrong about internet relationships and fan superstition -And the (but possibly fastest) way to deal with a breakupAt some point this becomes a full investigation into bike-based infrastructure.

This week I talk about what it must feel like to lose a Super Bowl too early in the day, address the Hollywood dating rumor mill, and take aim at a few cultural oddities, from bell-bottom sweatpants to bachelors degrees that don't seem to make sense anymore.Correction: after recording it was confirmed the Mia Khalifa/ Mr. Bean story is false. Tune in next week for Things I Was Confidently Wrong About.

This week i get into my Super Bowl preview, a fantasy Super Bowl roster of players who never won one, and a handful of things I've realized im officially out on including ripped old ladies and hand me down recipes. Plus an operation Pom Squad update and QB furries.

This week on Pat on the Back, I talk through what it feels like to watch the make yet another Super Bowl run, why the Seahawks game stuck with me more than expected, and how rewatching the Harry Potter movies as an adult somehow unlocked a wave of childhood nostalgia I wasn't prepared for.

The Bills season ended the way it always seem to; Abruptly, painfully, and with more questions than answers. break down the playoff loss, what it felt like watching as a fan, and why Sean McDermott's firing somehow makes everything feel heavier instead of hopeful. Meanwhile, the Patriots are somehow one step away another , which only adds to the existential dread. This isn't a calm recap, its a fan trying to process ,uncertainty, and what actually means when a team says its starting over. No hot takes this time.

The NFL Playoffs are supposed to be fun, so why do we keep letting boring teams and recycled narratives suck the life out of them? This week break down the games through the lens of entertainment, revisit a take that got some backlash last week, lay out keys to the weekend, and explain why some teams might deserve to be gone even if they're "good."Plus: things I'm not buying, coaching rumors that make no sense, and why fans shouldn't have rely on the same handful of teams to enjoy January football. Solo football takes, occasional rants, no guests, no fluff.

Playoff football, fake ads, and the things I'm officially not buying. We talk Lamar/Burrow trade theory, why chapstick is a scam, why VR isn't cool yet, and what every playoff team needs to survive this weekend.

Back from vacation and fully in galaxy-brain mode. This week, I’m serving up blueberry pizza bagels, the death of major action franchises (thanks, Jai Courtney), and a quick thought experiment about Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow. Stafford might have just lost his last shot at an MVP, I make my feelings about 2-point conversions very clear, and the bets… well, they’re in. No recaps, just narratives, tangents, and ideas I probably shouldn’t have recorded out loud.

Christmas Eve football thoughts, late-season story lines, teams on the brink, and a little rambling as the regular season winds down. No analytics and no spreadsheets. Not that that's new.

A cold open on gym etiquette, an accidental impromptu Jason Statham accent during Bills/Pats, Patriots fans being the soarest losers alive, the Joe Burrow return to fun blueprint, and the Chiefs getting eliminated has left us all unsatisfied. Weekly NFL fallout, bad impressions, and thoughts I probably should have kept to myself.

Week 14 made me laugh, smile, cry and yell. It was perfect. From the Bengals/Bills awesome snow game antics (brought to you by the Snow Guy) to the sweet, sweet downfall of the Chiefs and Ravens. this week had everything a boy could have hoped for....unless you're a Colts fan.

Week 13 gets the full Walken treatment. A shameless cold-open, a Texans/Colts recap in the weirdest voice possible, Thanksgiving leftovers, and the Panthers creeping into my brain like an intrusive thought I definitely didn't ask for.

This week on "Big Sack Weekend," Pat kicks things off with a Thanksgiving cold open that would make your aunt clutch her stuffing. Then its a full on song review of Chiefs/Colts, a brutally honest audit of the Patriots and Drake Maye, and a league-wide recap of every quarterback who took a dirt nap. it was a biblical amount of sacks. Enjoy.

An Italian tale of family leads right into a Bills - Bucs review in an accent I'm calling really bad British but could be way off. Did Sam Darnold relapse into seeing ghosts again? We finally got to see Jameis Winston play some football this year after every other backup imaginable saw some playing time. I map out the only acceptable path to a truly entertaining SuperBowl (well it will be for me)It's dumb, its chaotic, its football....and might be my funniest episode yet.

Prime time was boring, the Bills are stressing me out, and Joe Burrows injury update has me spiraling. I run through clutch-time QB rankings, crown a new "Come on the Back" winner, try to make sense of a weird NFL week. Lets talk football.

Football showed up this week like it pregamed too hard. The Bills beat the Chiefs and I'm not convinced that's a good thing, kickers suddenly think they're gods, and teams are out here wearing uniforms that should be illegal. Come on the Back of the Week included. Chaos everywhere.

The NFL took a nap this week and dragged us with it. The Chiefs are back, the Bills clocked in, the Jets brought the only fun, and my Super Bowl and MVP bets are officially locked - pray for my wallet.

The Bills didn't play and I still found a way to suffer. I watched Jets-Panthers as penance, lost another Wild@1 Parlay, and had to record this episode twice after Riverside crashed. The Chiefs are back, Joe Flacco's confusing me, and the football gods are clearly having a laugh at my expense.

The Patriots keep ruining my bets, The Bills keep breaking my heart, and the Bengals might just ruin their own reputation. Meanwhile, Baker Mayfield's out here proving me right one win at a time.

It wasn't just football this week, it was personal. The Bills dragged me to Heartbreak. The Patriots are the Come on the Back winners, and browns fans are the worst.

Jaxson Dart finally got to show out, the Bills stay in the win column, and the Bears have won two in a row (!!). But the headline story? Lamar Jackson may have just given up against the Chiefs. Oh - and maybe the Packers aren't arenas good as we thought.

Russel Wilson is cooked. America wants Jameis like its a national holiday. My bets were a disaster. But football was chaos in the best way and we've got the "Come on the Back of the week," "Pat on the Back of the Week", and the brand new Wild @ 1 parlay to prove it.

Bears fans, listen up - Its time to believe. this week were mixing it all in: the Pat on the Back, the Come on the Back of the week, why backup QB's are secretly electric, and why football is already delivering the chaos we live for.

From Mizzou's win to Buffalo's wild comeback, this week felt like football at its best. I break down some games, admit that Daniel Jones might not stink, and share struggle of helping someone move while hungover before kickoff. Because being a fan is about more than just watching - its about living it.

Football is back and nothing feels better than the first weekend weekend of the season. I recap my week one watching of college football, share who I was rooting for, who let me down, and revel in the pure joy of being a fan. From rivalries to wild jerseys, this is what week one felt like through my eyes (and my screens).

Forget stress, forget broken headlights, forget the week - football is back. I dive into why the start of the season feels like its own holiday and why nothing else matches the energy of week one.

Sports make us believe some absolutely ridiculous things. Lucky bottle openers, cursed jerseys, the whole deal - I dive into the dumbest stuff we fall for as fans. And before all that I've got a spicy take: LaNorris Sellers for Hiesman (yes, you read that right).

The last time sports truly hit me in the gut. Rivalries, emotion, and the magic that keeps fans hooked - this ones a personal, nostalgic look at why we care so much.

Is the secret to greatness just....being kind of miserable all the time? in this episode, I dive into the dark side of "grindset" culture and whether you really really need to be dead Inside to win championships. From Brady to Jordan to Giannis and Mahomes - and even a little Josh Allen love - I explore what greatness looks like when you're having fun vs when you're fueled by rage. Plus, a personal story about chasing success the hard way...and choosing to take a different path.

Joe Burrow has the swagger, the shades, the white pants. But, is that "too cool" energy what's holding him back? In this episode, I break down why being the smoothest quarterback in the league might not win you a ring.Plus, I introduce a new way to rank QBs: the Swagger vs Psychosis Tier List. And explain why the best ones might be a little unhinged. New episodes every Thursday. Hit follow for more sports takes with a twist.
